There are literally thousands of applications for the trailers that we build. It constantly amazes me the uses and applications that people come to us with for our specialty trailers. This comes with the territory when you are known in the industry as the premier manufacturer of custom and specialty trailers.
There are way too many to chose from, but one of my favorite specialty trailer applications that we have done a fair amount of are wine bottling trailers. In this specialty application, a company will come to us and in tandem with our engineering team, design from the ground up a trailer which will be loaded with wine bottling equipment. Once all the equipment is installed the trailer will go to different vineyards to set up shop and viola, you have an instant mobile wine operation. This helps the small farmers who may not want to invest in their own equipment in a permanent building. This is costly and not the most efficient. If they hire the specialty trailer with the equipment installed, they only pay for what they use. This is a win both for the smaller farmer and for the operators of the mobile specialty trailer.
The above example is but one of hundreds of specialty trailers that we have manufactured at the Aluminum Trailer Company. Visit our website at www.aluminumtrailer.com to see thousands of pictures in our robust photo gallery. Maybe we have already done something you are considering. If we have not, there is a great chance that we can help you dial in and figure out exactly what you want.

When I first got into the trailer business, I really didn’t know much about enclosed trailers. As the years have passed, I have learned a tremendous amount about enclosed trailers from our customers. I’ve learned what is important and what is the fluffy, foo-foo stuff that doesn’t really provide any value.
I remember my first trip down to Daytona for the race show before the 500. I sat down with racer after racer and learned that a quality design and good fit-and-finish just cannot be beat. There is no shortage of trailer manufacturers out there just pumping out the same old stuff with lackluster quality. We have built our enclosed trailers around a different customer. Our customers recognize precision craftsmanship and quality of design.
By steering out business this direction and taking the upper road, yeah, we miss out on some of the massive amounts of cheap trailers that are sold, but we can sleep well at night knowing that we build the best stuff out there. Our customers recognize this and continue coming back.
Check us out at the race track next time or just click onto our website, I’m confident you’ll learn a lot about the little things that make ATC/Motiv beat to a different drum. Happy Trailering!

What would you consider a mobile office? Those trailers you see on construction sites that are only temporary. The kind that look like stripped down mobile homes? What if a guy with a Blackberry conducts all his business at the local Starbucks while using their signal? Is that his office?
I guess that really either could be considered a mobile office. However, the one seems a little undermanned and the other a little too permanent. If you are looking for a truly mobile office you need a mobile office trailer. That’s where I can help. I build trailers for ATC (www.aluminumtrailer.com) and among all the trailers that we build are mobile office trailers. Why a trailer? Well really it’s the wheels! You can’t get any more mobile than that.
Whether it’s an office for fire control, construction site, service business you are truly mobile with wheels under your office. We have built mobile office trailers for all of those and many more. It’s exactly what you need. And did I mention you can still have your Blackberry and Starbucks. Happy Trailering!

Do you know what the difference is between inclose or enclose? Or the variants of those inclosed or enclosed? Well as it turns out there isn’t any difference they both mean the same thing. However the preferred spelling or usage just happens to be “enclosed”. Now that may not mean much to most people but I just happen to be in the business of making enclosed trailers, and since we advertise we really do try to get things like spelling and grammatical nuances correct. I don’t know how much longer that will actually be important in the age of texting and twitter it seems that you can just make things up as you go along.
Let’s get back to that enclosed trailers thing for a moment. Of course you were wondering what that means? Well weren’t you? An enclosure structurally is like a fence around property or more specifically like a porch on your house,but now you put glass around it. Voila! You now have an enclosed room that used to be an open to the weather porch. That may not mean much to some people, but try reading the Sunday morning paper on your porch in Indiana in January. You would immediately understand why enclosing it with glass makes a lot of sense. If I built enclosed porches, I would continue down this path but I don’t so I won’t.
I make enclosed trailers (www.aluminumtrailer.com) and I was just trying to get my point across in a way most people would understand. You can buy many types of trailers and many of them are open like your front porch, and they work very well for some things, but if you want things dry and not exposed to the elements of the weather you need an enclosed trailer. What kind of enclosed trailer? Well I could tell you now but that would spoil my fun. LOL (that’s one of those texting things I was talking about). Maybe next time we can talk about the different kinds of enclosed trailers, until then Happy Trailering!

Have you ever wondered if what you read in the newspapers or see on television is true or accurate? Especially if it is an advertisement or a commercial, you have to wonder!
Well my wife and I were watching television a few weeks ago and a commercial came on for the Petroleum and Natural Gas Alliance. All I can figure out is that it must be an umbrella group or an industry trade association putting out their message. The spokeswoman was talking about all the great things that do for America’s energy independence, and how reliable it is (this was before the gas rig accident in the Gulf of Mexico). Then she mentioned how this industry creates 9 million jobs for America because of their efforts.
Now my wife being somewhat skeptical to begin with said, “well that’s a little hard to believe”. Of course I’m used to arguing with her, and I immediately said the spokeswoman was probably right. You see I work building all kinds of trailers (find us at www.aluminumtrailer.com) and it just so happens that we build specialty trailers.
In this case we build specialty trailers for you guessed it the Gas industry.
We have built specialty trailers for oil well drilling, for soil sampling, for the work crews, for surveying, etc. We have built specialty trailers for at least eight different companies that I am sure are part of that organization. I can say for a fact they do create jobs for America, and I am thankful that one of them is mine. So the next time you read or see something making a claim. It just might true. Happy Trailering!

We are really thankful right now at ATC and Motiv, because over the past months our business has really picked up. It’s a great change from the past year or two when economic times were so tough. One area of our business in particular has been extremely busy: our commercial trailer product line seems to be growing every day, which is so exciting for us.
ATC has always been an industry leader in the commercial trailer field. We pride ourselves on our ability to design and build literally anything our customers can imagine. In the past few years we have taken our steel trailer product, the Motiv line, and adapted that to make a superb commercial trailer platform – especially for the customer who has a tighter budget. We are constantly looking for newer and more innovative solutions for our corporate and commercial clients.
One example of a totally unique trailer series we built were our remote fish tagging trailers. These lightweight ATC all-aluminum trailers carried special equipment to tag salmon in remote areas, as well as stainless steel countertops, custom sinks, and cabinetry that enabled the trailer to run fish through its machinery right at crucial streams and rivers. We have also designed many different vending units, apparel and parts display trailers, a BBQ trailer complete with open porch on the back to display a smoker, even mobile bar trailers!
If you want to see a small sample of what we can do for your business at ATC and Motiv, check out our Custom Trailers section of our website. If you don’t see exactly what you need, don’t worry. Just give us a call and let us design your perfect solution. Our only limitation is your imagination.

I have been working in the trailer business for almost 6 years now, and I am still continuously amazed at all the different things people want to put in their trailers. When you read the phrase “cargo trailer” it seems so simple and straightforward…yet every day at ATC and Motiv brings new customers, with different types of cargo, and totally unique ways of carrying it.
For example, we called one of our favorite projects “The Monkey Trailer” – and yes, it was a super custom high end playground for a customer’s beloved pet monkeys. Loaded with a custom primate cage package, wire runs all around the upper and lower levels of the trailers for exercise, a state of the art heating and cooling system, even a flat screen TV for the monkey’s entertainment…it was a cargo trailer that even a human would have been comfortable in!
Of course, we don’t make just super custom trailers (even if they are the most fun). When the tough economic times hit a year and a half ago, we heard from quite a few of our customers and dealers that ATC and Motiv really needed a value priced cargo trailer line. And so we introduced our Raven Lite models, which are designed to hit the budget price people want while still providing the space and super quality they need. You can get a standard Raven Lite even on the tightest budget, and for just a little more you can upgrade to all kinds of popular options, such as our aluminum frame or 2’ wedge nose.
So no matter what your precious cargo is, we can build the perfect trailer for you. To us, there are no “cookie cutter” trailers…whatever you want to haul, we will find a way!

You have only to turn on the nightly news or click on cnn.com to see what an unstable world we live in. Hurricanes, tornados, natural disasters of any kind – they can wipe out our man-made conveniences in a second and leave thousands of people without shelter. Even more disturbing are the terrorist attacks and criminal disasters that can cripple an entire city, or endanger hundreds of innocent people.
Luckily, modern technology is devising new ways to cope with these catastrophes every day. We at ATC and Motiv Trailers are proud to be part of these efforts. One of our fastest growing areas is the emergency response field. When disaster strikes, it is critical to restore necessary power, water, and food supplies as soon as possible. Often this can take days, especially in the case of a natural disaster.
At ATC and Motiv, we build lightweight and durable trailers of any size that can transport vital equipment or even provide services on the spot. These units are often referred to as command centers, since they serve as a base for emergency workers to operate out of. Command center units are all unique according to the area they serve, but usually include mobile communications and power equipment, computer workstations, conference and debriefing areas, and kitchen/bathroom areas for emergency workers. Command centers are highly specialized and complex trailers that most manufacturers would rather not deal with; at ATC and Motiv, we want you to bring it on! We have the skill and experience you need to get the job done, and the passion for quality work that gets it done right. ATC is the company you can trust for something so incredibly important

 ATC and Motiv Trailers build a wide variety of commercial trailers. One of the hottest segments of the commercial trailer market has been the mobile marketing trailers. These trailers are typically set up with sides that fold down and create a stage around the trailer. This allows owners to invite customers into their mobile shop space and display their products. It creates an inviting environment where customers can easily and naturally interact with the products that are being displayed. We’ve also built many of these stage trailers for show car displays too. We’ve heard time and time again, there simply is no better way to display a hot looking show car than with a custom stage.
Another growing segment in commercial trailers has been the mobile concession market. These trailers range from mobile food vending trailers to the T-shirt vending trailers found on the NASCAR circuit. ATC and Motiv have been industry leaders in commercial trailers due to our unmatched level of quality and craftsmanship. When it comes to making you look good in front of your customer, nothing compares to the quality of and ATC or Motiv trailer. Call us to discuss your project today!

If you are looking for a command center trailer, you have come to the right place. Honestly, there really aren’t many trailer manufacturers out there that can handle this caliber of trailer project. ATC and Motiv offer the quality, fit and finish and engineering expertise that is required for this type of project. Our engineering team will fully design your custom command center trailer on our 3-D CAD software and share prints with you prior to constructing your command center trailer. By investing this amount of time and effort into your project we are able to make sure we are building exactly the trailer that suits for your application. We will not begin construction on your command center trailer until we have your full approval to move forward into production.
Another huge benefit of working with ATC and Motiv trailers is that nearly 100% of the project will be completed by our team members all under one roof. The idea of having a trailer company build a trailer then ship it across the country and have another company outfit the trailer with the necessary cabinets and electronics is far from ideal. Because we have such great experience in command center trailers, we have recognized that the best way to exceed the needs of our customers is to do all the work right here in our facility.
Call and talk to one of our sales specialist here at ATC and Motiv Trailers and we’ll be happy to help you on your next command center trailer.

Custom trailers have always been a special part of our business here at ATC. We have a workforce that is very quality minded and have a craftsmen approach to building trailers. We haven’t always been as cost conscious as we could have been but our main goal of building custom trailers is that we meet the customers’ expectations. When building custom trailers it can sometimes be difficult to give the customer exactly what he/she wants. That’s why we offer 3D prints for all of our custom trailers. This helps the customer picture what they are getting before its built. Each custom trailer has an easy to read order form and corresponding prints. Many of our competitors have decided not to build highly custom trailers anymore. They have decided that it is too difficult and too costly to maintain the engineering staff as well as the workforce that will be able to provide the fit and finish that a demanding customer requires. Our custom trailer line is going to be continually improving our response time as well as our communication with customers. Custom trailers are the most demanding type of trailers to build and we have done a good job of providing them to our dealer base.

Over the years we have done our fair share of command center trailers. Command center trailers can be used for many different things. We have customers that have used command centers for training purposes as well as safety training for staff of fire and police departments. We are currently doing one of our largest and most expensive command centers to date. This particular command center is for the Louisiana Parish Sherriff’s office. During certain times of the year it will no doubt be tested in use. Our command centers come completely finished from major power generators to full communication capabilities. We do it all. We can even install specially supplied parts for a command center that is requested by a customer.

The word “custom trailer” sometimes scares people off because they feel that when you get the convenience of a custom design, inherently an astronomical fee must be associated in there somewhere. In out vocabulary a custom trailer does not necessarily have to be expensive. The only thing that often constitutes a custom trailer is what options you want and where you want those options located.
At ATC and Motiv trailers, we have built thousands of custom trailers that are 100% to the specifications of the end user, but didn’t take a stitch more time to manufacture. We have developed a flexible manufacturing process that allows us to make each and every trailer unique while still running an efficient production line.
One thing we have realized in the trailer business is that each and every trailer owner may want something a little bit different in his or her trailer. By creating a production process that is able to handle custom trailers we have been able to deliver exactly what the retail customer wants at a very competitive price.

“Custom trailers” is a phrase that is often tossed around in the trailer business. But what exactly does it mean, especially in terms of your trailer needs? Literally, customization is defined by one source as anything made or modified to a personal taste. Here at ATC and Motiv Trailers, we are proud to say that our custom trailers have really made their mark in the trailer industry – and even in the wider business arena. Not every trailer manufacturer will do “custom trailer” work. The bigger companies much prefer to turn out standard, identical, cookie-cutter trailers. In truth, these type of trailers are far easier to design and produce. Our custom trailers require significant sales and engineering design time, as well as painstaking craftsmanship by our production workers. This can sometimes make the process a little longer and the costs a bit higher. However, we believe that the final product’s quality and efficiency will save you time, effort, and money in the long run.
Just imagine, being able to sit down with someone and design a trailer that is absolutely tailored to your needs. We’re happy to say that there is very little that can surprise or stump us for long. Want just a few examples of custom trailers we have built? How about dog grooming trailers, emergency response command centers, high technology laser and radar communication trailers, even a mobile fish tagging trailer used in the salmon industry. The list goes on and on…just check out the custom trailers section of our website, www.aluminumtrailer.com , and see for yourself what we can design for your personal taste!

 Weatherford International Oil Services just received their first commercial trailer from the Aluminum Trailer Company. Weatherford contacted ATC when they had noticed the commercial trailers on our website http://www.aluminumtrailer.com/custom trailers/field service . They needed a rugged commercial trailer that could be used as an office in just about any environment. With the numerous commercial trailer pictures on the ATC website they were able to pick a design that worked for them and get their trailers extremely fast. After narrowing down the options and determining the floor plan of their commercial trailer they decided on an affordable solution. Pictured is a similar unit to what Weatherford purchased.
 I personally had the opportunity to take Weatherford their first commercial trailer. These particular units will be working in the beautiful state of Wyoming. As you may or may not know the temperatures can be very cold in Wyoming so these commercial trailers were designed with an exceptional insulation package. The crews will be able to be comfortable in the extreme cold temperatures they called upon to work in. Buy purchasing a custom commercial trailer to do the job Weatherford needs done, they will be able provide a work environment that will help retain employees and attract new ones as they need to hire more with future business.
With our capabilities and experience you will be pleasantly surprised how easy and affordable a custom commercial trailer solution can be for you and your company.
